roiyaru Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 (edited) Hey there, ive been staring at this weapon for the longest time and I absolutely love it but it does not fit my characters persona of the good guy http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=28881 Could anyone make the blade itself white and the design going up the blade black? The pommel of the blade should also be white and the grip/ guard should be more good looking. Im not a fan of the guards circular shape or protrusions of claws, id rather have the guard more katana ish with a 5 pointed star shap and and white color. If anyone can explain to me how to do this i would appreciate it if your not willing to create it for me. Edited March 5, 2011 by roiyaru Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Brasher Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Retexturing or recoloring is just changing the texture file. You may not change shapes and contours when retexturing. If you do, it becomes a much larger task and is a modeling project for different software than what you would use for a simple retexture job. To learn how to retexture, there are a number of tutorials on this site: The Elder Scrolls Construction Set Wiki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanceor Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Basically if you can use Photoshop or another raster editor, you already have the skills needed to start retexturing items. You'll need do obtain the Photoshop DDS plugin and NifSkope. Once you get started, you may end up liking the look of your retexture, and then start tweaking it more and more with increasingly advanced techniques such as modified normal maps and glow maps. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
